POV: you're red army soldier that found a piano between the ruins of berlin and started playing Katyusha but this time without your Comrades Ivan, Pyotr, Vasily, and Dimitry on your side

This song is basically when Katyusha's beloved one never returned from battle...

I'm Russian and that sounds crowdly, sadly. You can hear there a broken heart, like everything is dead. It's dark,cold and helpless. I really love it, I dunno why. May the force to be with you, goodman

Currently listening to this as I'm on my way to my grandmother's funeral. We were very close, but she was ripped away by cancer. She said that when she died, not to be sad for her, but to be happy because she wasn't suffering anymore... May she rest in peace.

I’ve got a name for the song “Katyusha’s lover never returned”

You turned a song of victory into a requiem. I kinda like that.

As Yuri was slowly walking towards the ruins of an old building hoping that the dilapidated structure would at least give him a bit of shelter for he had been wounded in battle, and was dying, he went into a corner, and sat down, slowly bleeding to death. He thought of his family, back in Tula, his mind flashed memories of his mother who always cared for him, his brother whom he always played with, his father who was his role model, and finally, he thought of Katya, his fiancé whom he left to serve the motherland. He promised her that he would return and marry her, that they would live a happy life and grow old together, alas, here he was, in the streets of Berlin, bleeding to death in the corner of what was once, one of the many buildings in the city, he silently said a prayer, and afterwards, his consciousness drifted away. Edit: Wow didn't expect people to actually like a short story I made while listening to a piano cover of a song

As someone who prides himself on his knowledge of history, especially during the events of the World Wars, this was quite sad. I could practically visualize the glowing red line above the keys as the front line and every single note disappearing into it as thousands of soldiers that never returned burning away never to be seen again.

I'm Russian, and it sounds really professional and cool)))

A song for the soldiers who never returned defending their home land from an invading force so many years ago during the dark times of the great war.

I'm Russian and I'm crying listening to this song. That's very rare. This is a masterpiece

when you "accidentally" use military grade rounds in the tankery match.

The video: "Katyusha but it's actually dark and emotional" Me: Well it seems interesting * 3 minutes later * Me: [Operation Barbarossa flashback]

Я аж водкой поперхнулся от того, как это прекрасно

(Read with this music) It's a cold snowy day outside. There is at least a foot of snow accumulated on the field. But unlike the cold weather, the passion of Katyusha and her army was going extremely hot like a nuclear fusion of a star. Supreme commander Katyusha of Pravda's tankery team, after she checked the icy ground hardened enough for her army to roll out, leads her army of 240 tanks which were owned by their school and still operational for their next action. At first, the mighty, dreadful Pravda High School was predicted to take victory with no doubt. Despite only 60% of Pravda's tanks were operational, it was still enough to guarantee a solid victory for their semifinals. No school could easily win hundreds of tanks engulfing the field, and a matter of number were no such problem for a strong school like Pravda. Plus, they could easily bend Senshadou rules to take advantage, as if the rules were plastic rulers. Though everyone knew bringing hundreds of tanks to a battlefield is totally against the sport rules, judges still listened to stronger schools and justified their own unfair rules. Senshadou, which was supposed to be a maiden's sport was basically nothing but 'survival of the fittest'. Powers of schools mattered than most other factors. While the short commander sang the song 'Katyusha', the massive army of Soviet tanks charged towards the enemy base. Very large quantities of T-34s, IS-2s and many other Soviet WW2 battle machines drive through the field. The semifinal battles have started. Now, Pravda High School was only guaranteed to gain victory. Their opponent was a very small school, Oarai Girls Academy. Oarai's force of only 5 tanks were no match against waves of T-34s and IS-2s, and possibly the tiny school could even have fewer operational tanks as plans of sending a sniper assassin worked. Now, Katyusha sees the battlefield. Her pupil is now filled with the confidence for victory. Katyusha shouted "Useless"(Muda) twice as their army approached to the weaklings. However something has changed. The leading group of T-34s all bursted into flames, and some of them had turrets ejected due to their ammorack dednoating. Oarai, expected to have 5 tanks could never have pulled such all out attack like this. This attack was from someone else. Now, as there were many defeated tanks laying all over the area, it wasn't easy to tell the difference between the snowy winds and dust, smoke from the burning metal beasts that have already bit the dust. Katyusha realized her leading group of medium tanks bit the dust. It was from a large group of brown German tanks, the group Katyusha hated. It was KuroMoriMine, known to be worst enemies with Pravda, as the two schools had treated each other's POWs extreme brutal. The German themed school charged towards Pravda's army. They were here to temporarily aid Oarai, known to have their leader linked to KuroMoriMine in someway. Katyusha raged as she saw the German tanks rushed towards broken allies. Students who were trying to escape from the destroyed vehicles were immediately executed by Kuromorimine's anti tank weapons and machine guns. Katyusha was so outrageous now, as she saw the army that killed her comrades were aiding the enemy. Her irrational voice commanding her remaining tanks to shoot at the German themed academy busted through the radio. Katyusha was starting a new battle against KuroMoriMine. Katyusha's will to exterminate the facists were clear and desperate. Her mind was filled with hatred towards the German themed academy. Just then, her best friend and also second in command, Nonna ran towards her to stop the fire towards KuroMoriMine. Nonna knew their initial goal was to defeat Oarai, and already many comrade students were killed in actions or executed by the German Theme'd academy's guns. Nonna's plea to stop the battle in crossfire was desperate, but Katyusha did not listened. Katyusha's desire for vengeance towards KuroMoriMine was just beginning. However no such word was heard by Katyusha, who was burning with the will for revenge. Katyusha aggressively pushed her desperate second in command, as her decision was already firm. No one could now stop the short but aggressive commander. Nonna, who was so desperate to stop comrades dying through Atrocities now had no choice. She had to choose mutiny, but that was also killing her best friend. Nonna's pistol barrel made contact with the back of Katyusha's head. Katyusha sensed the metal part touching over her helmet. Nonna was again, pleading as tears were dropping on her cheeks. Katyusha still wanted revenge and wanted to end the facists she hated the most, but at the same time She still had a mind caring for Nonna as her loyal second in command but also, friend. But she wasn't minding to change her decisions anyway. Having no other option left, Nonna now had to commit her last resort. Nonna, now pulled the trigger to end the battle once and for all. The bullet penetrated through the supreme commander's skull, and blood with some parts of Kat's brain tissues blasted on the turret of the commander's tank. With a boom, Katyusha the supreme commander was gone forever. Now after the act, Nonna, while holding the dead body of her friend, ran to the judge and stated their abandonment of the match. With the judge's signals, the battle now ended with Pravda's abandonment. The judges now were busy trying to cease combat between schools. While the judges were busy handling the match, Nonna caught a glimpse of Oarai's commander, Nishizumi Miho who was looking at what happened from her tank's cupola, and with her loader crying and hugging her too. "Nishizumi Miho..." Nonna murmured as she looked at the shocked enemy commander. Moments after that, Nonna also decided to follow the fate of her friend. Though her 'friend' was one of the causes for messed up life, the one who commanded her to do terrible acts for the past years including jumping in to a burning pile of wood, and pleasing a male NKVD official. Despite all of this, Nonna still respected her as a commander, and also as a friend somewhere in her mind. Almost at the same time as the match ended, Nonna followed her commander but also friend's fate leaded by a bang from her pistol. (Wow this came out to be longer than my expectation. Also hopefully you get the reference)

title suggestions: "katyusha's heartbreak" or "katyusha waits eternally"

It sounds scary to everyone but Russians lol. To them it just sounds sad( Edit: this got weird fast, I was just joking :,)

approximate translation: Apple trees and pear trees went into blooming, River mists began a floating flow, She came out and went ashore, Katyusha! On the lofty bank, on the steeply shore. She came out and sang she song about Her young friend, the bluish eagle from steppe All about the one she dearly loved, The one whose letters she treasured and kept. Hey, a song, the song of the young girl, Fly and go after the bright Sun, Find a soldier on the distant borderlands Say hello from Katya waiting long for him. Let him remember the young and simple maiden, Let him hear the song she now sings, Let him protect his Motherland for sure, And their love Katyusha will protect.

I'm crying rn. This has only happened once before. And that was "The wrong side of Heaven". By "Five Finger Death Punch". You didn't even need vocals to touch my heart. You sir, really did this song justice. Thank you for this beautiful piece of music.

I actually have an friend named katyusha she lost her sister when her sister saved her from drowing in an icy lake i was there when it happened all i can see is her sister slowy sinking to the bottom into the dark depths of that icy lake in the winter i cant stop crying but seriously this song i done very well thank you to whoever made this it has allowed me to let go of some of my grief

*Like it wasn’t before*

Для иностранцев она может показаться мрачной, но для русский она будет грустной

я просто удивляюсь воображению людей. так уже историю катюши сочинили. мол ее любимый умер, а письма от него не приходят. хотя по факту песня про то, как любимый все еще служит на границе и она с помощью песни и ветра хочет передать ему "привет", что она его ждет.... кст, когда была написана катюша, война еще не началась даже

I love it, its a masterpiece, we feel the melancholy and deep nostalgia in every note.

I'm imagining an old babushka, purple shawl over her head, cup of coffee in her hand, watching snow falling outside her window. She shuffles over to the fireplace and takes down an old, silver framed picture of a young couple. A Soviet era soldier and his beloved Katyusha, smiling at the camera, standing in a sun drenched field of cotton. The old woman gently caresses the image as a tear rolls down her cheek.

Комрад, ты пытаешься довести меня до слёз этой печальной мелодией?

How many times did you lissened to this Me:Yes comrade

There is a Girls und Panzers fanfic in FF called "The Death of Katyusha" which is a parody of the movie, "The Death of Stalin". This song seems kind of appropriate for misconceptions in the story.

Omg this sounds so sad yet beautiful and deep, as Russian I’ve never thought that Katyusha can sound like this, that’s truly amazing 😱

Эта песня согревала душу Русских солдат. Она наполнена счастьем и печалью. Великолепная композиция.

Me seeing this song for the first time. Searches up the original, then the translation. And that is how I discovered how good Katyusha sounds

Настоящая Катюша звучит более воодушевляюще А Эта звучи как будто тебя только подняли с дивана и заставили играть Но это похоронный шедевр

I WANT A FULL VERSION PLEASE!!!

It's actually sad and emotional instead of dark and it's beautiful. Please, make full version of that 😍

Katyusha sat on the steps of the train station, a sad looking bouquet in her hands. The soldiers had just come home. Every soldier except hers.

Я плачу. Я рыдаю. Уже несколько минут. Я представил как в конце 9 мая 1945 года, когда уже вовсю отпраздновали, взвод красноармейцев сидит и слушает как их товарищ играет эту мелодию на руинах павшего Берлина и поминает павших товарищей, благодаря и говоря им в мыслях: "Мы дошли, товарищи! Мы дошли!"

Не плохо, но для меня мелодия не страшной а грустной звучит :)

POV: You are an explorer. While in Russia you notice a strange hole, others aren't checking it out, but your adventurous spirit jumps in. You land in what appears to be a labyrinth, the walls are grey with dark red stains. Surprised you decide to explore further and further, about halfway through you hear this. You walk along the dark hallways the audio getting louder and quieter. There is something playing music, but you have no way of telling. The song echoes throughout the labyrinth, you feel your brain losing its cells. The song loops forever and ever. The labyrinth is icy, and you are lost. You find the darkest coldest corner where you lie. The story ends here. The final page of the story was with the explorer whom none have found yet.

insane talent

This is amazing! Love your adaptation/improvisation.

As somebody whose music tastes were severely influenced by Katyusha, that being one of the first non-classical pieces of music I discovered as a kid, and knowing the lyrics and a bit of the story behind it, this just sounds really really sad, not scary. :'(

I love u!

Allô. Passionnant, sentimental ; Il n’y a rien de tel que la musique pour vous émouvoir si elle est utilisée pour le bien et le calme. Et l’image obtenue à un point d’originalité et d’interprétation sans précédent. Merci pour ce moment divine plein d'émotions.

Gets me seeing the bars scrolling (notes I know) and they just flood the screen but there he is just playing away, well done, sir. Gives a visual appreciation of what a pianist does

sad and emotional instead of dark and scary

This is beautiful. So beautiful that I got goosebumps while listening it.

When the Russian villain tells his origin story

Это просто невероятно! Субъективно для меня - одно из лучших видео на канале. Спасибо огромное! :)

Girls und Panzer: Yukiyukite Senshadou: Katyusha's death theme be like

I used to take care of my nana whenever I could. I helped her take her meds and shots. When I wasn't there she wouldn't take any of it. We had a really close bond, she told me things she told nobody else because she trusted me so much. She was a sweet hearted veteran of the Vietnam war. She took others into her arms when they needed someone, my grandpa passed December 11th of 2021 and my grandma felt lonely. I tried spending as much time with her as I could. The last thing she told me was "I love you so much" when she was in her medical bed at the hospital. I wish I had never let go of her hand after that.. that night she had passed.. it was the beginning of February this year. We thought she was going to pull through.. this song I used to sing with her despite us being U.S citizens and in no way Russian. I just found this version and when listening I started singing along gently and I could feel her singing too with me... may she always live on.. rest in peace nana..

I love just watching the way your hands move so effortlessly across the keyboard. It’s so satisfying :3

as a russian i find this terribly sad, as I burst into tears singing this song

When you read THAT Girls Und Panzer doujin....

POV: You are recruiting soldiers and you tell the families their sons will survive but they die and you are to tell the news about them to the families.

When Nonna and Klara don't return When Nina and Alina aren't there When Katyusha stands alone with the victory

Вкусите атмосферу, закройте глаза и представьте каково это было на войне и в военное время, голод, работа в тылу, перестрелки, уверен эта музыка вам в этом поможет ))

Now u made me more sad. The song was emotional to me before this even though I’m not Russian. But I appreciate good folk/love songs.

Dark but still so unbelivible beautifull

I'm like a Russian speaking, from this song goosebumps run through the body, and tears roll up for no reason. Thank you very much for the performance of this work

Melhor versão do Katyusha, excelente improvisação e interpretação

I think I failed my russian test miserably today, this is a mood right now :D Anyway would love a full version of this, so beautiful!!

I see during the first winter at Stalingrad, an SS sergeant finds an intact grand piano and sitting down plays this music as both German and Russian soldiers stop to listen authentic snows falls.

Sounds EPIC!!!

Its nor-creepy, nor sad.... It feels... more powerful like this version actually tells the feeling of katyusha when she gets to know the fact that her dear will never ever come back

Очень красивая импровизация! Похоже на лунную сонату! Очень красиво!!!

Beyond amazing, bravo!

Why did this calm my soul?¿

Pov: You're a hopeless soldier on the way to fight for the motherland, however everything/everyone around you is either burning or freezing, the once great city of Moscow lays in ashes as the Basil Cathedral's top has the wretched Swastika flag. What will you do now? Continue fighting or Surrender?

this gives me memories of my previous life as a soviet rifleman in the Red Army

god of piano, your piano versions hit me most

Wow such a nice version. I don’t think i would ever be able to play it myself but you play it so beautifully.

Минуту молчания для тех солдат павших за нашу родину мать Россию

Прекрасная мелодия , грустная на слух , но сама по себе шикарная , лучшее исполнение 👍

This is great! Just awesome!

I didn't knew I could like this song even more than I already did. Well done.

Sounds good, but it’s just sad to my taste:_/

Расцветали яблони и груши Поплыли туманы над рекой Выходила на берег Катюша На высокий берег на крутой Выходила на берег Катюша На высокий берег на крутой Выходила, песню заводила Про степного, сизого орла Про того, которого любила Про того, чьи письма берегла Про того, которого любила Про того, чьи письма берегла Ой ты песня, песенка девичья Ты лети в залитый солнцем свет И бойцу на дальнем пограничьи От Катюши передаст привет И бойцу на дальнем пограничьи От Катюши перредаст привет Пусть он вспомнит девушку простую Пусть услышит, как она поет Пусть он землю сбережет родную А любовь Катюша сбережет Пусть он землю сбережет родную А любовь Катюша сбережет!

Very nice Arrangement

and when you, the soldier to whom Katyusha in the distant homeland is singing her song of longingly waiting for loved ones returning home, who has found a piano, by some small miracle still playable and in decent tuning, among the rubble, starting to play a song of the distant homeland strike the third-to-last note, all that can be heard by you and your brothers in battle who stood by your side joining in song and your comrades in arms, is a sharp crack as the prepared, hidden and left behind on purpose satchel is set off, fulfilling its purpose killing the better part of the entire platoon.

Katyusha is tired of your failures comrade not even a Gulag can fix you I'm sorry comrade *loads TT-33*

you can't scare us Russians with Katyusha! Amazing version, very thoughtful and melancholic.

Wow that's so cool!

Wow.. Great arrangement!

Боги, это действительно великолепно

simply Beautiful

"We've wun the war, but our loved ones we lost" Resonates strongly with this song

That is absolutely chilling. I love it. Are you planning on doing a longer version?

*ahem* this aged well.

This is when Katyusha's love returns, scrarred, deformed by battle. She still loves him. But war has destroyed him. He has turned mad, and is no longer able to say a word or think about her.

Simply excellent!

I’m having Stalingrad flashbacks and I’m not even Russian.

i had scenes in my mind about the Germans and Russians killing each other ruthlessly in the stalemate of stalingrad in the brutal ice, so many deaths, so much blood, the place is a hellhole, and as the soldiers kill each other with either the thoughts of their leader or family, a soldier watches this scene with pure horror

yes love this piano style

how make the effect in the piano, and the lights, iluminate me!

The thumbnail is Tanya if she got isekaied to Soviet Union instead of Imperial Germany.

The constant ticking of my wall clock just gives this more immersion

Beautifully played

Расцветали яблони и груши Поплыли туманы над рекой Выходила на берег Катюша На высокий берег, на крутой (Выходила на берег Катюша) На высокий берег, на крутой) Выходила, песню заводила Про степного, сизого орла Про того, которого любила Про того, чьи письма берегла (Про того, которого любила) (Про того, чьи письма берегла) Ой, ты песня, песенка девичья Ты лети за ясным солнцем вслед И бойцу на дальнем пограничье От Катюши передай привет И бойцу на дальнем пограничье От Катюши передай привет Пусть он вспомнит девушку простую Пусть услышит, как она поёт Пусть он землю бережёт родную А любовь Катюша сбережёт (Пусть он землю бережёт родную) (А любовь Катюша сбережёт) Расцветали яблони и груши Поплыли туманы над рекой Выходила на берег Катюша На высокий берег, на крутой (Выходила на берег Катюша) (На высокий берег, на крутой)

The end hit me, I don't know why..
